Watch Marshawn Lynch drop back-to-back expletives on ESPN before network can bleep it
Marshawn #Marshawn
What Marshawn Lynch remembers most about playing with Justin Forsett is his fellow running back having never cursed.
So, Lynch, who – with Forsett – was in attendance for the Cal-Washington game on Saturday night, did it for him. Twice actually. It appears the network tried to catch the words before they were broadcast but wasn’t quick enough.
Both were on hand to be inducted into the Cal Athletics Hall of Fame and were interviewed on ESPN on Saturday night.
“He never said a cuss word,” Lynch said. “To this day, I don’t think I’ve ever heard him say one.”
Lynch, who played at Cal from 2004 to 2006, added he and Forsett, who played from 2004 to 2007, had fun and always had jokes for one another.
Being back is special for Lynch.
“It’s always a dream come true,” he said. “I never thought we would ever have this moment because both of our careers had ended. The football thing was over. We found out we were getting inducted into the hall of fame together. That’s one more opportunity to get out there and experience something like this.”
That’s what things got interesting. The former NFL star pointed out the attendance left a lot to be desired.
“I’m from the Bay area, but when I look around the stands and I see these (expletives), these stands, weren’t full like we were here, that (expletive) kinds of have me on tilt. I ain’t feeling that. If this is California Bear football, they need to start filling up this stadium.”
